Easily one of the most beautiful and diverse islands in Greece 🇬🇷🏝️🏔️

Great to see more from you Ryan! I see Crete as one of the most blessed places on earth: almost year-round sunshine, no deadly animals, abundant fresh water supply from many springs, rich soil for the tastiest produce and more history than anywhere I can think of...that's not even counting the diversity of landscapes + beaches!!!

@@RyanShirley My man, I don't even know where to begin! I'm passionate about travel, and my expertise is on islands and coastal towns, especially those of the Mediterranean and Caribbean. Nevertheless, immediately off the top of my head, one place I think would suit your adventurous spirit spectacularly is the French island of Réunion in the Indian Ocean. It gets the Jurassic Park award for being like the Himalayas but crazily it's in the tropics. Likely the most impressive mountains on any island I've ever seen in the world, kinda like Kauai's more exotic older brother...yet good luck trying to find much high-quality video on it, at least in English. Not many people in the West go here (mostly French tourism) but damn, you could do some damage here with your lovely drone-centric style. Forget its mediocre beaches, go inland! There is jaw-dropping footage at every turn with such geological diversity. It's hard to find quality sharp footage on KZfaq, but doing a quick search I found this one video that at least gives you a small taste of its many diverse regions: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/f7qDpZOlyd-sk2Q.html. If this island doesn't speak to you, then next in my head is not too far from Reunion: the Dragon Blood Tree Forest of Sokotra, Yemen! or.. or... (head explodes) haha. There are just too many cool places to list! Dont get me started haha.

Crete is really big for an Aegean island and has so many great beaches and places to see. Being into archeology and ancient civilizations, i've visited the Minoan Palace of Knossos (partly reconstructed), and also the Herakiion archeological Museum. There's also Roman ruins at Gortyna. The town of Rethymnon is interesting for its Old Town with its cobblestone streets. Samaria Gorge National Park is stunning. As usual a great video.
